I know I promised BUT...: A couple SatShares ago, I promised no more Lebron coverage on OAB for a while but then Arash Markazi writes column about a night out in Vegas with Lebron and his Lebrontourage's for ESPN, featuring girls with tattoos, dance offs with Lamar Odom, pantomiming dribbling, and some sort of Peter Pan like waiter that subsequently gets pulled for "ethical reasons." (via Deadspin)

And they're back: Okay, so the first episode of Jersey Shore Season 2 didn't "light my world on fire," but it definitely had it's moments... Is there a .gif of the Situation's face when Angelina decides she's rooming with him and Paulie? Because if there is, it needs to be on the blog like now. (via Videogum)No lie, this song made my Friday afternoon: Phil Collins makes that Katy Perry song from kind of a jam, to a definite, honest god, summer jam. (via Vulture)OAB most anticipated, Avey Tare - Down There: Combine the upcoming record from one Animal Collective dude with other Animal Collective dude, Panda Bear's Tomboy, and you have the records that I'm most looking forward to for the rest of the year now that The Suburbs leaked. (via Stereogum)Timothy Treadwell should have been taking notes: In an amazingly horrifying yet uplifting story on the human condition, a woman gets attacked by a bear and lives to tell about it. Deb Freele, you go girl. (via The Awl)Okay, this takes "pirating" to a whole new level: The people behind the "Rocks Off" Cruises are giving you another option for Pavement's September 19th show at the Williamsburg Waterfront, instead of standing in the crowd nodding along to Shady Lane, you could be hanging on a boat facing the stage and nodding your head to Carrot Rope. (via Brooklyn Vegan)

One of the reoccuring fantasies I had as a child was hooking a rope to the back of my school bus, hoping on a skateboard, and going for a ride. Said fantasy comes to life in the video for Tennis's Cape Dory, so needless to say I was thrilled with the video.

Tennis, anyone: The back story of Tennis is the best - a husband and wife duo who spent the last year sailing the seas on a houseboat like a real life Penny and Desmond while making music on said house boat, Baltimore 7' to be specific. Check out Baltimore and the most excellent, Marathon (which is up there for jam of the summer). (via Stereogum)

OK Computer, OK Suburbs: The BBC is touting the new Arcade Fire record, The Suburbs as their OK Computer which may or may not also mean that it's also their Revolver or Life After Death or Nebraska any other really ground breaking awesome record. Any who, the record has leaked itself, so me, my gold head phones, and the orangeappletumblr will get to the bottom of this "this record is the new" old record that is really good. (via BrooklynVegan)

Okay, I saw the "Beach Boys" also known as Mike Love, some other old bros, and JOHN STAMOS. So yeah, it was as rad as the Beach Boys could be without Brian Wilson. But here's Mike Love being bat shit crazy and calling Mick Jagger a "chicken shit" among other gems at the 1988 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.

I kind of hope this leads to a rash of Star Wars related bank robberies, culminating in robber dressed like Obi Wan going into a bank and using the jedi mind trick to convince the teller to give him all the bank's money. But that leads the question why would Obi Won use the force for evil deeds, oh well... Yay, creative nerdy bank robbers!

I don't know if I missed this or forgot it happened whenever it came around but KICKPUNCHER (and the soon to be follow up comic book which will included in the Season 1 DVD)! But yeah, more metaness from Community, yet another reason to buy the Community DVD other than "Spot Spodnik, The Drinking Game."

The Pitchfork Festival LIVE (from your computer): Not in Chicago for this weekend's Pitchfork festival? Don't worry, the internet has you covered - sets from like everyone - Raekown, Titus Andronicus, LCD Soundsystem, Girls, Panda Bear, St Vincent, and Pavement will all be streamed from Grant Park to your air conditioned apartment. (via P4K)

Three new Concretes are available at the new Midtown West/Theater District Shake Shack - The Great White Way, Jelly's Last Donut, and as pictured above, Pretzel! The Concrete. All three of these and me are going to happen!

"Doug's dad - Doug, do you even know who Bob Dylan is?Doug - No. But I know he died of drugs.Doug's dad - Doug, Bob Dylan is alive and well. I produced his last 3 albums.Doug - Oh, you mean Uncle Robert. He didn't die of drugs."

Last mention of this whole Lebron nonsense, I promise: Unless the rest of his house is full of Vitamin Water or there's more letters written in comic sans, I don't have much interest in Lebron James and his brand for the time being. But you should still read Will Leitch's reaction to "The Decision" and how being a sports fan has never felt so stupid. Later this week, he looks at the 72 guys who played from the Knicks since Lebron was drafted in the league which will be a barrel of laughs (and/or sobs). (via NY Mag)

Oh hi, bloody Tommy Wiseau: The Room mastermind, Tommy Wiseau is back in The House That Drips Blood on Alex this fall. No idea if there will be any candles, music, or sexy dresses but there will be Tommy's blood. (via Videogum)

Chick-Fil-A was at Bryant Park yesterday, I was there: Unfortunately, I missed out on free Chick-Fil-A by like 10 people and while I guess it wasn't "worth it" to walk 10 minutes from my office to Bryant Park for the opportunity to wait on a line to nothing. But at the same time, if the words "Chick-Fil-A" and "Free" happen to come together 10 minutes away from my office, I'm there. (via Midtown Lunch)

Okay, it's the 4th and it's the Ghostbusters bringing the Statue of Liberty to life with some slime and Jackie Wilson's "Higher and Higher." And I know that the scene from Ghostbusters 2 really occurs on New Year's Eve when Venkman and Co are off to save Sigourney Weaver's kid from Vigo the Carpathian at the Manhattan Museum of Art but it's the Statue of Liberty and the Ghostbusters, so Happy 4th.

F, F, F, you're getting an F: Check the AV Club's to what was TTPBD's most anticipated film of the summer, The Last Airbender. Also check, The Total Package's review from a fbook comment of his - "Ugh. That was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Not exaggerating." (via The AV Club)

After all of this, we might be getting Amar'e Stoudemire: Readers know that I've been invested in this whole Lebron deal and since it looks like Allan Houston and company didn't win King James over with a powerpoint presentation, I'll be moving on and getting invested in luring 'Melo to the Knicks next year. But hey at least we can look forward to the back pages of the New York papers and the phrase "That's Amar'e." (via NY Post)

P4K's Summer Release Guide: Need jams for the summer? I'm sure you'll find something on Pitchfork's guide to the upcoming record releases for the summer and beyond. OAB most anticipated? Best Coast's Crazy for You among like 100 other things. (via Pitchfork)
